Kefalonia is located on the western coast of Greece. It is the largest of the Ionian Islands and has the most beautiful beaches of the Greek islands, with wonderful coves, rocky coastlines, and sand and pebble beaches. It was once voted 10^th in a world scenic beauty poll for its natural beauty. With a population of 42 thousand it is the 6^th largest Greek island. Among the many natural beauties waiting to be discovered on the island of Kefalonia the first that comes to mind is the Dragoti Cave, which has managed to stay cool for thousands of years and features vibrant stalactites and stalagmites. After exploring the cave enjoy a short boat ride to Melissina Lake.

The island is also home to 12 blue flag beaches. Argostoli, the largest city on the island and considered the capital, gets especially crowded in the summer. The city’s main center, Vallianos Square, has many cafes and restaurants and is very popular among the locals and tourists in the evenings. Cobbled Street is where you can find many shops and also explore the Saint Spyridon Church, clock tower, and Botanical Gardens, as they are all within walking distance.

Among other places to visit in the city are the Archaeological Museum of Argostoli, which features interesting archaeological remains like swords, sculptures, coins and ceramic goods dating back to the Hellenistic and Roman era, and the Korgialenios History & Folklore Museum, which exhibits photographs belonging to Kefalonian history in a 19^th century building. There are different churches and cemeteries in various villages on the island. The Kefalonia Airport is located 7 km from Argostoli in the Svoronata Village. In addition to serving flights from Athens, it serves charter flights and some international flights. It is especially busy in the summers.
